Amazon Web Services (AWS) customers can now run their cloud applications on hardware dedicated to them. Amazon's EC2 uses virtualization, based on a customized version of the Xen hypervisor, to run multiple OSes and customers on a single physical machine. However, that way of running an IT infrastructure isn't a good fit for all users as some have regulatory or other restrictions that require physical isolation, according to an Amazon." Also: "Oh snap! Look who just ate Apple and Google's lunch here? Minutes ago, Amazon rolled out its very own music streaming service which is conveniently dubbed the Amazon Cloud Player."

I've been trying out Cloud Drive for the past day and it's pretty neat. The interface is a joy to use (fast, simple and to the point) and the free 5gB storage space is not bad either. My only complaint besides Cloud Player being available only in the US is that while you can upload multiple files at once you have to download them one by one, which sucks big time.
